Hope they go round and landscape any dents in the garden.

I'd at least want my lawn cutting for free, for life.

I know a certain RAF exchange pilot who went night flying with ground handling wheels fitted. Came back with only one fitted, the other scared a couple of gendarmes as it bounced past their car, right along a village main road.... and out of the other end of the village without touching anything.

And a Puma load pole belonging to "Gentleman John" (IIRC) once fell out of the rear hatch during an IF trip and knocked a small balcony off an old folks home in Guildford.
